Encode or decode using COBS (Consistent Overhead Byte Stuffing) using COBS Transfors Streams (https://streams.spec.whatwg.org/#ts-class)
More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_Overhead_Byte_Stuffing
Instantiation and use
const decoder = new TransformStream(new COBSDecoderTransformer);
Reading data
const reader = decoder.readable.getReader();
function processData(chunk) {
let { done, value } = chunk;
if (done) {
return;
}
const view = new DataView(value.buffer);
// do stuff with data.
return reader.read().then(processData);
};
reader.read().then(processData);
Writing data
const writer = decoder.readable.getWriter();
async readFromDevice() {
// Example using Web USB to get 32 bytes on endpoint 5
const transfer = await this.device.transferIn(5, 32);
const data = new Uint8Array(transfer.data.buffer);
writer.write(data);
this.readFromDevice();
}
